aspoerle 1 Posted February 17, 2013 Does anyone here eat things with added sugar or things that just have sugar in it usually. I don't agreed with sugar free things made with aspartame or splenda because of the health effects. I have heard with the sleeve people usually don't have problems with sugar.I was wondering because while on Clear Liquids I can have Jello but I don't want the sugar free kind.

cartmansnj 105 Posted February 17, 2013 My surgeon told me I could have the regular Jello and that the sugar free was for gastric bypass patients. I have been eating the sugar free stuff anyway. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Imjustmee 44 Posted February 17, 2013 Most dr's follow or suggest a high Protein low carb diet, which is why sugar is such a big issue. My dr told me I could have anything I wanted, but I was accountable for the outcome. The sleeve is only the first part. There's a lot of reprogramming ourselves to be more cautious and make the right choices. If you want Jello or other things with sugar and you're ok with that than go for it. I've had my moments as well. Mostly with sweet tea. I'm southern and have lived on it my whole life. Splenda is awful in tea so at times I have some. I'm completely accountable for it and try to make even more healthy decisions when I have one. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
